SUMMER, 2010

Visit my blog and see what my life is really like.

   Fine hand-woven items and quality supplies since 1968
Homestead Weaving Studio produces high-quality hand-woven rugs, clothes, throws and scarves.  Chris Gustin is a fiber artist who takes recycling seriously at her studio in Brown County, Indiana.
Her unique recycled rugs turn industry excess into contemporary art for the home.

STUDIO NEWS!!!
Our handwoven rugs are featured on the cover of the 2010 Indiana Travel Guide, along with jewelry from Amy Greely. You can request a copy from the tourism website or view the entire brochure online (note: this is a large .pdf file).

The studio was featured on a segment of WTIU's Weekly Special in November. It focused on environmental weaving.
 
If that doesn't work, here's the link.

New projects: Check out what I've been doing on the looms and off. There are autumn-colored rayon and cotton shawls, clothing, and a studio full of Shaggy Chic rugs.

We have expanded the studio to include a "loom room." We are open 11 to 5 most days. Please call to confirm that we will be here before you make the trip.
Classes and day instruction have resumed.  We have several looms warped and available for make-and-take activities. See what's on the looms. Read what some of the students have said. One group of four came to celebrate a 60th birthday here at the studio and went home with 4 great projects!
  Five happy weavers (and Ian) came for the day weaving. They are shown with their projects.
